Let Your Kind Shine”
Kindness is everywhere at CES! The three recipients of this week's awards were nominated by a teacher or staff member for showing exceptional kindness. They received a sunshine keepsake and the opportunity to sit in the yellow sunshine chair over the next week to promote kindness throughout CES!
Graysin Wilkinson (Mrs. Wolf’s 1st Grade)
I would like to nominate Graysin for the Sunshine Chair. He has started bringing positivity to our group each day. He greets me with a hug and is especially thoughtful in offering extra encouragement when he senses I may be having a difficult day.
In addition, he has been working hard to motivate and support his friends, encouraging them to put forth their best effort during their I-Ready testing. His kindness, empathy, and leadership make a meaningful impact on those around him.
Madi May (Mrs. Taylor’s 5th Grade)
Madi is a quiet leader and good friend to all. She is kind to classmates daily. You rock Madi!
Amelia May (Mrs. Jones’ 5th Grade)
Amelia is a very kind girl who is always encouraging others and brightening everyone’s day with her smile. She is a good friend to all and we are so happy to have her at CES!
Hayden Horsman (Mrs. Davis’ 5th Grade)
Hayden is kind to everyone at CES. She is a great example of a good student and friend. Hayden always does her best. She always has a smile on her face and spreads positivity and cheer at CES. We are so thankful for Hayden!
Gage Burnett (Mrs. Gilliland’s 5th Grade)
Gage is a kind and good friend at CES. He sets his mind on something and tries hard to achieve it. He always has a smile and a kind word; a “good morning,” “good afternoon,” or “have a great day” for peers and adults. We are so glad to have Gage at CES!
Piper Reeder (Mrs. Jones’ 5th Grade)
Piper is kind all the time. She encourages her classmates and always has a smile on her face. Piper’s good qualities do not go unrecognized at CES. She is a ray of sunshine and we love Piper Reeder. Keep being great Piper!
Bounce House Day at CES!
Chambers of the World: Continuing the Missouri Tradition of Randy Nadler
In honor of the legendary Randy Nadler, who visited Chillicothe schools for decades of epic travel assemblies, CES is carrying on this tradition. During our last week of school, we continued our own travel-focused annual assembly for every grade level. Mrs. Chambers provided an hour-long assembly for every student where they learned all about her real-life adventures through Greece. Discussion topics & personal pictures ranged from the Parthenon to olive trees to Greek mythology to eating salads before every meal to the Acropolis to the Olympics & so much more. We can’t wait to explore a new country with her again next year!! Thanks Mrs. Chambers for sharing your adventures with our CES Friends!
5th Grade Celebration for 50/50 IReady math and reading lessons

Congratulations to Mrs. Whitney Tan, recipient of the very first CES Volunteer of the Year Award!
Mrs. Tan dedicates countless hours to supporting our CES family. From leading the Sunshine Squad, to serving on the executive board of our ChilliMO PTO, to stepping in wherever help is needed, she is truly a utility player for our students and staff.
Her kindness, dedication, and servant heart make a lasting impact on our school community each and every day. Mrs. Tan is a huge part of what makes CES so special, alongside all of our incredible volunteers who give so generously of their time and talents.
Thank you, Mrs. Tan, for all you do for CES!
What a beautiful day for our Kindergarten through 3rd Grade Track & Field Day! ☀️🏃♂️🏃♀️
A huge thank you to all of our volunteers for helping make the day such a success, and special thanks to Coach Coult and Coach Dixon for all of their hard work and leadership. Our students had an amazing day!
Our 5th graders are growing more than a garden — they’re growing through real-world learning and lasting lessons. Grateful for teachers who think beyond the classroom walls! 🌱
Today, students saw the beginnings of the raised bed gardens. They also harvested their first icicle radish! So exciting! We are still in need of one to two beds and 16 bags of Miracle Grow raised bed soil.
Snow cones on a warm day = the perfect treat! ☀️🍧
A huge thank you to our amazing PTO volunteers and to our awesome students for working so hard during MAP testing!
